Because most new features that require badging are going to be behind a pref we should add a pref listener that reacts to changes.
Example browser.messaging-system.whatsNewPanel.enabled will be enabled by normandy after browser startup after we had a chance to badge the feature.

I have verified this issue with the latest Firefox Nightly (70.0a1 Build ID - 20190721215935) installed, on Windows 10 x64, Arch Linux and Mac 10.14.5, using the steps provided here. Now, the "What's New" button appears after the "browser.messaging-system.whatsNewPanel.enabled" pref's value is changed to "true".
